Much awaited stranger things making an EPIC comeback in Dead by Daylight.

Back in 2021, the gang took a break from the game, leaving some dedicated players in the lurch. While some lucky folks got to hold on to their characters, that spooky Hawkins National Laboratory map vanished into thin air, leaving us all hanging.

But hold onto your hats, 'cause it looks like Netflix heard our calls! The sci-fi horror series is making a triumphant return to the game, much to the delight of fans everywhere. Get ready to dive back into the eerie world of Dead by Daylight with a fresh dose of Stranger Things goodness!

Right on the tail of Stranger Things Day, the big news dropped, and it's a double whammy! Not only did we get an awesome Eleven skin in Fortnite, but it looks like our Stranger Things pals are making a grand return to Dead by Daylight too. Fans had their hunches, especially after the sharp-eyed Dead by Daylight sleuth dvveet spotted some sneaky traces of the Hawkins map in the code, just lying low and playing hide-and-seek.

Naturally, this sparked a frenzy of discussions among both Dead by Daylight and Stranger Things fans, all buzzing with excitement and anticipation. And guess what? The stars aligned, and the long-awaited announcement finally arrived.

Behaviour Interactive made it official - Stranger Things is making a grand return to Dead by Daylight! That means Nancy Wheeler, Steve Harrington, The Demogorgon, and the eerie Hawkins National Laboratory are all making a glorious comeback to the asymmetrical horror fest. And of course, we can't forget about those awesome skins and outfits for our favorite characters, including the legendary Jonathan Byers outfit for Steve Harrington.

Even the original perk names and icons for all three characters are going back to their classic vibes, giving us all those nostalgic feels. While they'll still be general perks for now, this exciting news has got fans of the series jumping for joy! It's like a dream come true for all those who've been wishing for this epic reunion for ages

Given the game's growth and evolution during the franchise's two-year break, it's safe to say that fans can brace themselves for some exciting changes when it comes to purchasing the Stranger Things goodies. While no fresh content was spilled during the big announcement, fans are keeping their fingers crossed for the possibility of a second chapter making its debut sometime soon.

There was some buzz previously about a potential new Stranger Things chapter for Dead by Daylight, courtesy of a certain leak, but alas, nothing materialized from it. Now that the series is back on Behaviour's radar, fans are eagerly anticipating the prospect of brand-new assets gracing the game in the near future. 

For those newcomers diving into the Stranger Things chapter in Dead by Daylight, it might be worth peeking at some handy tips on how to tackle playing as the Demogorgon. While the new Alien killer might have some similarities, the Demogorgon brings its own unique set of skills to the table, including the mighty Shred attack and the ability to open eerie portals. With the game's ever-expanding lineup, the return of these iconic characters could inject some fresh diversity and excitement, keeping the game's pulse racing and drawing in even more casual fans to join in on the action. Happy hunting!
